Mariam Express

The Mariam Express became submerged together with her cargo, in a storm in 2006. A site for advanced level divers, she now lays on her port side, 25 metres deep. Once a transporter, Mariam and her cargo are now home to an abundance of underwater life, including barracuda, snappers and rays.
